Hi friends,

I just entered in Wiki a film-strip projector whose name is "Ogonek" (I guess !)

Has anybody some informations about this very sexy Big smile apparatus.
Maybe the photos of the lens could help?
No other writing on the item…

Thanks by advance.

Sincerly,
Michel.

Hi Michel,

Sorry, I can't add any information either. The instruction manuals for simple slide and filmstrip projectors always seem to go astray. I have also added two more filmstrip projectors to the Wiki Catalog. I have no information on these either. Perhaps someone can help with these too?

Thanks, David !

When you say :"The instruction manuals for simple slide and filmstrip projectors always seem to go astray.", I should rather say "lost". Sad

Best regards,
Michel.

Hi Michel!
I can only confirm that this projector made in Kharkov, the address of the company was 303 Shevchenko St., price was 7.5 rubles.
What is ÖÏÓÒÎà is debatable; the ÓÒÎà possibly stands for Ukrainian society of deaf people, ÓÊÐÀ¯ÍÑÜÊÅ ÒÎÂÀÐÈÑÒÂÎ ÃËÓÕÈÕ.(see http://www.utog.com.ua/)
In USSR such societies as deaf people, or blind people, or amputee people was aloud to manage small manufactories to employ preferably members of the society. All proceeds from manufacturing go to fund the society and help they members.
So possibly your film projector, in same way as first FED, was made by disadvantaged peoples. What made it even more special!!!
